[Kyle keeps jumping from frying pan to fire]

ALAMEDA, Calif. (AP) -- The Oakland Raiders signed free agent quarterback Kyle Boller on Thursday, adding a former first-rounder to an unsettled quarterback mix. more

who would the Colts like to keep out of the playoffs? The Jags who always play them tough or the Ravens who Manning owns right now. Hopefully the Colts want to put a division rival out of the playoffs, and then the Ravens go to Indy during the 2nd round of the playoffs and find some magical football fairy dust.

 

If Ravens make 6th seed, we'd probably have to play at Cincy, then Indy during the playoffs.

I can't tell if this thread is meant to be silly or serious.

I actually have a theory that many times Ward's "grin" is just the way he breathes when he's out of breath... you know, when you're sucking wind really hard and get the painful smile?

 

I mean, sometimes Ward is clearly laughing at somebody. And I think he's pretty dirty - he knows how to play just past the whistle and be just enough of a jerk. But I think he also looks like he's taunting/smiling a lot... but its out of breath. Just a thought.

 

 

I take it that he just enjoys blindsiding people and it beams outward through a smile.

Since Jared Allen is #10 with 3.2% Ray also at 3.2% must be right at #10 as well. The far and away winner? Smiley Face Hines Ward. more than 5% ahead of #2 Haynesworth. Like I've said for years, Ward is dirty, and just because he smiles doesn't make him any less of a dick player.

[Jared Allan-legend in his own mind]

What would make you think he has a high opinion of himself?

He's a young kicker, and too bad that miss had to come with :02 left. I put alot of the miss on coaching. Has Marty Schottenheimer not taught everybody that you don't get to 45 yards out and dive into the line to line up the kick? Should have tried to get 5 or 10 more yards. Putting the 45 yard game winner on a young kicker was a poor decision.

 

Damn shame too, team is 3-3 and about 3 plays away from 6-0.
